"I’ve also added padeyes to the bow, about four feet from the bow on either side, and to the rear corners as hardpoints to attach lines and such on my friend's boat and plan to do the same to mine. The two padeyes on the sides are used for a towing bridle."
My question is, don't the padeyes interfere with folding up the boat? They would end up on the inside when the bote is folded. Also how high are they in relation to the existing grommet holes on the bow?
Potabot said to just drill new holes where you want them for better towing. Has anyone done this? Any protection needed around the edge of the holes so they don't distort or tear?
Thanks for your comments.
